DESCRIPTION:
A few options are available for
persisting Java objects in their most natural form (as Java objects). Products
range from simple object serialization/persistence frameworks to full blown
database engines. The presentation will cover two different approaches to object
persistence.
Prevayler:
A simple transactional object
serialization engine. The entire data set resides in memory. All transactions
are serialized as journal files that are replayed to recreate the data set at
restart. Implementations available for other technologies such as PHP, Ruby,
.NET
ObjectDB:
A JDO 2.1 compliant Java object
database engine. Provides excellent performance and natural object modeling
capabilities. Can be run as embedded only or in client-server mode.
SPEAKER BIO:

Java development company. Prior to starting his company he worked as a
